Here are some paragraphs which analyze the data from a technology survey at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities.

I've created these sentence frames from the example above use them to support your drafting of analysis paragraphs:



The idea that ( ) can be seen in ( ).

The value that students place on ( ) is likely due to ( ).

The responses given to ( ) are consistent with ( ).


I used the first two to create this example:

The idea that students value technology can be seen in their response to the question, "Should schools use technology more?" Eighty-one percent of respondents indicated that schools should. The value that students place on technology is likely due to the resources or support they find online, since most students indicated that the first place they go for information is the Internet, even when it isn't required.
